“Arab Nationalism”: Has a New Framework Emerged? (question posed by James L. Gelvin)
Pensée 1: “Arab Nationalism” Meets Social Theory
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2009
Extract
The “origins problem” has loomed large in the historiography of nationalism in the Arab Middle East and for good reason: it is constitutive and representative of other issues surrounding the problem of nationalism. George Antonius published the first iteration of what might be termed the “standard [origins] narrative” in 1938. Since that time, the narrative has undergone a number of revisions, the most notable of which are by C. Ernest Dawn, Philip S. Khoury, and Rashid Khalidi, among others.
